An old fashioned family trying to make it in a modern world.

Merry the Elf Mischief

Merry the Elf has been visiting our house for a few years now. And there is one thing you can count on if you let an Elf hang around the house. You never know what kind of mischief they will get into when no one is around…

Merry likes to play with the Calico family and sneak their cookies.

She’s even been caught on Daddy’s desk at the computer. We think she must have sent Santa an email update. But the worst was yet to come…

Merry got caught looking through Momma’s Christmas swap presents from her Ravelry group. Well, apparently I have Ella well-trained about snooping in presents. Ella was so upset at Merry in the presents that Ella actually wrote Santa a letter reporting on Merry’s bad behaviour. She had the envelope all addressed and ready to go. Ella and Daddy had a chat and she decided that maybe ‘tattling’ on Merry wouldn’t be the nice thing to do :)
